    I swear American Government offices specifically want it to be as painful to visit them as possible. There was probably some sort of ridiculous policy that determined that only one person was allocated to that window during that period.

      It's more like this being a gov't job, it means they don't ever get fired for being slow. They don't get paid per person interviewed, so they want to do it slow and chill.

      Embassies do serve as a local HQ for espionage. Perhaps West Taiwan was up to something in Japan on that day and all the staff were busy dealing with that...

      I'm sure that's what it was. And it does make sense; some people in the embassay are trained to do different jobs or allocated to different purposes. That's how anything works. If you drop your car off at a shop to have it worked on because the brakes are messed up and they have a brake specialist who is busy, which would you rather do: have your brakes looked at by someone who kind of knows how your brakes work, or wait for the specialist who definitely knows?
      Remember, if they mess up your visa application through their office error, it's your problem, not theirs. You will be the one suffering the consequences and having your plans disrupted. Sometimes it's better to just wait and have things done right versus having them done incorrectly and having much bigger problems down the road.

    Yeah, that’s pretty standard American legal/business system

      @@LaughingOrange That's how all embassies work, yeah. The Japanese Embassay in Washington, DC isn't American soil, it's Japanese land.
      Also, every US naval vessel is considered American soil. A foreign woman who gives birth aboard a naval ship will give birth to a native-born American citizen because the ship is American "land" and the 14th Amendment applies to it, giving her child birthright American citizenship anywhere in the world (even if neither she nor her husband has any connection to America whatsoever). If a woman gives birth aboard an international flight, she is considered under international law to have given birth in whichever country the plan first lands on, interestingly enough. If her plane lands in America, the kid will once again be American, regardless of the mother's nationality.

    Everytime I hear these stories I have to think of Steven Moffat at Comic Con 2008, when he talked about his experience entering the US and being questioned by customs: "I didn't know this about America, but you hate us!"

    I’m from Canada but honestly the government offices here are just as slow as the american ones LOL.
    Funny thing though is I once went to a Japanese embassy in Canada and honestly the customer service was way better and faster 😅.

    Yeah that’s any American gov agency. If you call the USPTO, you get an (absurdly long) automated message about the department, followed by “The USPTO is experiencing longer hold times today.” That’s a PERMANENT PART of the automated message. You will hear it every time you call.
    And it’s always true - If you call after 10:30 am, there will be like 5-10 others calling in, andyou’re waiting AT LEAST 30 mins to talk to someone [who will then transfer you to the wrong depatment].

    Yeah... We pay so much in taxes but they try to cut costs as much as possible. We waste a lot of money on buildings though...

      A lot of money wasted on inefficient programs in general. Meanwhile, bridges are falling down. There's just a huge misallocation of resources, across the board.
      The US spends the largest share of its GDP on healthcare of any country in the world, by far -- about 17%. The next-closest countries are the Scandinavian countries with cradle-to-grave socialism and they only spend 11%. We also spend way more on primary and secondary education than any other country, despite having students that underperform on international benchmark tests. We throw huge amounts of money at problems hoping to just buy better outcomes without doing the hard work of fixing things, and all it succeeds in doing is wasting our money without improving anything.

    8:24 "we don't attack"
    Reminder: Hitler was literally from this country. :P
